    Mediterranean Salad with Chicken Shawarma
    Julisa W.

    We were in the area and I was craving some shawarma and stumbled upon this little gem. My partner got the gyro plate and we agreed we could've shared that together! Portions were huge. Rice was super flavorful as was the gyro meat. We both agreed this dish was the star! The pita bread was fluffy but crispy at the same time. I got the Mediterranean chicken shawarma salad and it was flavorful! The chicken itself was kind of dry but it tasted great. Salad was fresh and light. Excellent quality of ingredients. Got a baklava because it was staring me in the face; yummy but very honey forward. Not my favorite but not the worst, probably would just try something else next time. The restaurant itself was very simple, nothing to see except the menu and the kitchen. The service was great and it came out crazy quick. The cashier was personable and the kitchen staff seemed chill. Definitely a good spot to try!

    Came across Sinya via DoorDash when craving Mediterranean! Portion size is definitely big enough to share or have leftovers for a couple of days. The meat was tender but wasn't as seasoned with the Mediterranean spices that makes it so very special. I would order again to see if it's a one-off experience. Will keep you posted...

    Mixed Grill Entrée

    The pita and hummus weren't as good as I remembered. The hummus flavor tasted different and kinda off this time. 5/10. The mixed entree had juicy meat, but both the meat and rice were missing the flavor I remembered. 7/10. The salted caramel tahini mocha mostly tasted like milk and barely had any espresso flavor. 3/10. The staff taking our order looked like they did not want to be there. 5/10 service. Vibes were still solid though, just a casual spot overall. 7/10.

    Well packaged delivery. Fresh flavors and I appreciated the lemon wedges that were included in both the lentil soup and the tabouli. The tabouli was so delish! The falafel wrap was nice too as was the lentil soup

    Food was delicious, meat was moist and tender, rice was seasoned very well and tasty, salad was fresh and seasoned. Humus was good along with the pita bread they provided. Lentil soup was very good, creamy and savory, unlike the watered down some places have. No wonder they have 5 stars on Yelp. I've bookmarked this place for the next time I'm back in the neighborhood. Delish! They cater too, a bonus option for future parties. They have a nice no frill outdoor shaded seating, and the service is excellent!

    Wonderful, clean, quick, and such a great addition to Montrose. You go up to the counter to order and they'll bring it to your table. We were given some complimentary falafel which was delicious. The chicken shawarma wrap with waffle fries and mint lemonade are light and tasty.

    Chicken Kebab Entrée

    Pretty solid middle eastern joint. The chicken was moist, the hummus is good with a healthy dap of olive oil on top. I think the salad could use a better dressing and I think the plate would greatly benefit from some kind of sauce accompaniment. Although, I am being a little nitpicky here.

    Tried their delivery this week and super impressed with the quality and flavor. Got the kabob combo with hummus and salad. Good value and tastes delicious! Husband got some other plates and he was equally impressed by the food here. We also tried the bakavla and it was delicious! A++!

    Seriously so impressed with this place. I got the meal/platter and was pleasantly surprised by how much food I got. The quality was also top tier, and it came out hot and fast. I was able to get three meals out of this one order as the leftovers were plentiful. You can't beat the cost either. It's a really solid restaurant tucked away in the corner of River North. I would definitely go here more often if I lived closer but will definitely stop by anytime I'm on the area!

    I decided to work from this café one day and it was a great spot to be productive. There was plenty of seating and charging ports available. They had free Wi-Fi and the noise was at a reasonable volume. They have a full breakfast menu in the morning, offering different coffee drinks and breakfast items. During lunch, you can order many classic Middle Eastern salads and sandwiches. I ordered the Fattoush salad and a side of pita bread. It was a huge portion and very delicious!

    Sinya Salad

    This place is excellent and is now one of my go-to spots when visiting Chicago. Food is delicious and prices are solid. I've gotten both the chicken shawarma wrap and the salad with chicken. Both were filling and hit the spot. Would absolutely get them again. Wish extra sauce wasn't extra as their hot sauce is delicious!

    Mixed Shwarma platter.

    Sooooo good. I got the entree and it was heavy on the amount of meat. Such a good bang for your buck.

    This is the 4x we've ordered from Sinya's and they don't disappoint. In my opinion the best hummus and falafel in town.

Mezza [Combo platter including Baba Ghanoush, Hummus, Ta'ameya(falafel), Tabboula(salad): Our favorite was the Banana Ghanoush, as it was one of the most flavorful baba ghanoush I have had and contained a very good char. The hummus was a little more on the sour side, and the texture of the salad was refreshing. The bread was also made fresh and was refillable as well, which we appreciated. My friend liked the falafel, but I think it was a little too dry, and I wish they could increase the intensity of the spices to make it pop out more. The chili sauce helped a lot though. Cairo Platter (Kofta, Chicken, Beef): The Kofta is my favorite-seasoned, soft and tender. Out of the two times I got this, the chicken and the beef were not as moist/juicy-they were okay. Overall I wish they gave us more Kofta though, since there wasn't much of it, and the platter was on the pricier side. Shawarma Plate: The shawarma was tasty and the portions were good. I personally liked adding the chili sauce on top. Macorrona Bechamel: Our favorite dish. It tasted like Mac and cheese but the flavors are even more nuanced and complex. Very delicious and honestly we wished we ordered one per person . Overall I really like the restaurant, and I think some of the dishes were really well made, you just need to find them :). I hope the quality is more consistent as we will visit again.

It wasn't really heavy on cumin or onions and garlic, but still delicious. Now the star for me was the strawberry Horchata very creamy delicious not overly sweet. Soooo goood! You get two different sauces. The green one has some spice! Now they offer steak tacos with avocado which are good (they have another name for them but I forgot)! They prefer cash, however they do accept credit/debit you use pay a little more. Great eats and plain and strawberry horchata! A cute clean small place!!! They are always busy so you will wait at least a good 15 mins to get your food...

At noon, they unlocked the door, no hello or greeting - just straight behind the counter and to the kitchen for us to order at the screen in the front. The screen was filthy (they just opened as a reminder) we couldn't tell what was in the 'combo' and then when we were going to order the boneless chicken wings, as they were gluten free when we ordered them years ago, I asked one of the women in the kitchen to confirm. She said no, I don't think so. And walked away without any further guidance for what I might be able to eat on their menu. It's not a preference, it's a dietary restriction - so we walked out from there. They clearly had no interest in helping me or our business. A real disappointment after driving 30 minutes out of our way to try and enjoy it.
